A lot of these early Simpsons episodes were very clunky (both in writing and animation). This season one episode has the distinction of being both clunky and terribly dated. The plot revolves around Bart getting a tiny spy camera and basically doing what any kid would do with a spy camera, take pictures of whatever he feels like. While at a seafood restaurant, Bart finds Homer at a Bachelor party and dancing with a stripper, and obviously Bart takes a picture (with homer in it). In a bizarre and kind of dumb series of events, Bart shares his picture with the kids in the playground, and it gets around Springfield, until Marge finds outs. Pissed at Homer, she kicks him out of the house. And when homer goes to apologize, we find out the reason was teaching Bart a terrible lesson about "treating women". I am not a feminist (first and foremost) but I find it really scummy and insulting that simply telling women, "Being a stripper and a exotic dancer is terrible". In real life, the stripper would have told Homer and Bart or even Marge, "You think you're better than me. Don't tell me how to live my life. This is what I do, if I wanted your help I'll tell you, otherwise, get away from me". Now in all seriousness any man that would objectify and harass a woman by making her think she was nothing but a piece of meat to him, or just some sort of misogynistic that thinks it's okay to violate or harass woman, to them I say, "For the love of god somebody kick his ass". Not only that this episode is so stupid. I know the internet wasn't a thing yet, but why on earth does a picture of a fat man dancing with a scantily clad women go viral. Won't they have just cropped homer out to focus on her. Not only that this episode has a smug self-congratulatory attitude that makes it repulsive to watch. This episode is just a slog and cringe fest all the way through. On top of that, it's another reason why the character of Marge is sometimes an inescapable part of the show, because no matter how mature she thinks she is, or how uppity she behaves, I tell her to "Grow the Hell up!".
